Someone had once asked Moulana Raipuri رحمة الله عليه: “What is nisbat?” Hadhrat Raipuri replied: “To be blessed with practising akhlaaq-e-faadhilah (good character) and carrying out good deeds is termed as nisbat.”

This means that one should adopt each quality of Nabi , carry out those actions that are pleasing to Allah Ta`ala and Nabi  and refrain from those actions that will displease Allah Ta`ala and Rasulullah . In short, this is nisbat.
